Got the X detailed yesterday

The detail was done by Alex @ Driven Perfection in Weymouth, MA
I usually do my own detailing but felt my X5 was due for some in depth paint correction that I didn't want to take on. I'm very pleased with the result.



















Mods:
- 30MM rear H&Rs
- Lowered via reprogram
- Intrax Control Module
- Ceramic pads front and rear
- Polk Audio DXi 12"
- Alpine 500.1
- Pano repair ()

Uninstalled:
- 8mm Front spacers
- Magnaflow Xpipe

Looking really good...inside & out.

Don't forget to update your signature with model/model year/build date info. Just like the e39 forum....your model info allows us to help you better...as well as helping others (that read your posts) understand what you've done to your e53 and whether it applies to their model. There are multiple models, engines, transmissions, and changes during the production run that makes adding model/model year/build date info in a permanent signature helpful to the whole forum as time progresses on and new members come as old members go.

OoO sparkly!

The rear looks a tad too low, but other than that, the X looks great!

Wow very nice! I wonder what they used on the black plastic pieces to make it look so good. Any one know or have recommendations?

^^^Swissvax Protection Plastic Conditioner is the best out there. Easy to apply, not greasy, and doesn't damage anything--not even the crappy plastic in the Ferrari/Maserati lineup.

Nice. How much does it usually cost?

Swisswax or the detail? Swisswax is expensive as hell but its amazing. This detail was $275 and included a 3 stage cut, buff, polish, headlight lense buff and Laminx, interior shampoo (they clean your rails and all), molding repair (mine were faded pretty bad), and plastic conditioning/restoration.

He spent 10 hours on the car. I can't complain.

Feen, why did you take off the front spacers?
